Everything/Everyone Annoys Me

Everyone/everything annoys me. Is it even possible to break free from this? It's like I go about my life feeling like everything is just one tedious annoyance to deal with after another. I fix one problem and then get to fix the next. Is this how life is for everyone?

It feels very discouraging on a social/personal level because I get so frustrated with a group or person that I eventually just give up all together and completely withdraw.

Hello hvert: I don't know if this is what it's like for everyone. But it certainly is for me. Everything & everyone I encounter just pisses me off. In my case, I'm pretty-much completely solitary at this point. I never seem to get along with anyone. So it's just easier to keep to myself. I presume it is possible to break free from this. But I'm an older person. And at this point in my life, I really just don't care to. I prefer to be left alone...

I feel this way around people most of the time, which put me in a near complete isolation. I'm trying to snap out of it, though. So, what I can say is that it's OK to be frustrated, just take a time off to get yourself together and get back to the arena.

Thanks both of you!

i really wish I could change this way of thinking... usually It would be nice to not get so wound up about this stuff.

I think something its wrong with your feelings .Life its beautyful and you must be happy ,laugh and speak nice with others .Maybe you had a bad trauma with nervousnes and thats way you are angry withh all people .I suggest you to find a way to fix this ,maybe to consult psyholog .Anger sentiments are not good for you because its afect you emotional and it bad for others also .Good luck to you

Yeah....so I definitely go through "can't be bothered" times in life. I make adjustments, trying to not all or nothing whatever it is/whomever it is and recharge my outlook.

About anger ....it can be a gift and catalyst to change. Wasn't there just a blog on pc recently about it?

I'm grateful that I've learned to accept my anger along with my happy times....It's only a matter of knowing how to not overreact with it nor take it out on others or oneself....

Edit: to add, speaking about anger. I took that to work today. It didn't affect anyone, negatively, not even myself. I was knee deep in acknowledging my frustration in life with my father. I showed up to work. Arrived to work with another, 'perform the impossible' moment. I remembered to smile, hey, I've been reprimanded for a focused look before. I voiced something that the board of health addressed with me, my first week in a management position. That'll turn to something addressed at the next management meeting, with calls to bring me right into those meetings, someway/somehow. Instead of smiling and calling everything a rose garden and a "that's ok, take advantage of me whenever and however you want, ' i could appropriately channel that emotion to set the ball rolling. After last week and now this week. Anger can be a gift, when handled with logic and poise.

Rats, I replied to this last night, but I don't see it now?

I did find that blog post you mentioned and agree that it was a good one - thanks for pointing it out. I think some of this is hormonal for me, and it helps me to remind myself that I don't always see everything through this lens...
